Chapter 96: Beating Aunt Jiang's Sisters and Getting Engaged
When the Jiang family saw him, they all stopped talking and looked at Huang Mingcai with different expressions.

Huang Mingcai glanced at the rest of the Jiang family without saying anything. He just nodded to Jiang Daguo and said, "Brother, where do you put the beans?"

"Put it here." Jiang Daguo moved a chair and pointed to a corner of the room.

Jiang Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes, walked up to Jiang Meizhi, and suddenly shouted, "Auntie—"

Everyone looked in the direction of her voice.

Huang Mingcai had just put down the bag when he saw Jiang Meizhi. His face suddenly darkened, "Jiang Meizhi?"

When Jiang Meizhi left, she not only took away her dowry, but also took away a lot of other items from the Huang family. Huang Mingcai was so angry at the time that he did not quarrel with Jiang Meizhi, but he always held a grudge against this incident in his heart.

Now when I see Jiang Meizhi, I just want to beat her up.

Huang Sheng saw Jiang Meizhi, his eyes widened, and he shouted, "Mom, why are you hiding under the stairs?"

The father and son walked towards Jiang Meizhi together.

Jiang Meizhi was so scared that she ran towards her boyfriend Ouyang Lin, "Ouyang, let's go!"

How dare she come to Jiang Meihua to ask for benefits? She took her new boyfriend and ran away, riding on their motorcycles, and disappeared without a trace.

When Aunt Jiang saw Jiang Xiaoxiao pointing out Jiang Meihua, she was so angry that she wanted to beat Jiang Xiaoxiao up, but she was afraid that Huang Mingcai would beat her up. She was even more afraid that Jiang Daguo would drive her out and she would never be able to see the Tai family again.

I could only hold my temper and say, "Daguo, today is Meihua's big day, why don't you try to stop the fight?"

Jiang Meihua was so angry that she couldn't speak.

Jiang Meilan said quickly, "Mom, you knew that my eldest sister would cause trouble when she came, so why did you bring her here?"

"She is your eldest sister, why can't she come?" Aunt Jiang looked unhappy.

"Okay, stop talking!" Uncle Jiang couldn't stand it anymore because he found that Aunt Jiang's sisters were laughing at the joke.

Jiang Xiaoxiao clenched her fists angrily.

[Grandma, are you worried that my second aunt will marry into a good family? You bring along the kind of people who might cause trouble.]

[If the second aunt's marriage was cancelled, the first and third aunts would definitely laugh at grandma, saying that grandma's eldest daughter got divorced and the second daughter's marriage was cancelled, and grandma couldn't even arrange her daughter's marriage. She was really useless.]

[If you want Second Aunt's marriage to go smoothly, Grandma had better not talk, just sit down and drink tea and eat]

When Aunt Jiang heard Jiang Xiaoxiao's thoughts, she was stunned.

Although she is not very clear about her work, she is a person who cares about her reputation and she knows very well the personalities of her elder sister and younger sister.

Now the conditions of her elder sister and younger sister's families are better than hers. The man she married is disabled, but she has been often ridiculed by her elder sister and younger sister.

Reminded by Jiang Xiaoxiao's inner voice, Aunt Jiang's anger suddenly subsided.

When Aunt Jiang's elder sister and younger sister said something veiled to her, she directly retorted, "Can't you see my family doing well? Do you want to see me make fun of you?"

She spoke bluntly, leaving her elder sister and younger sister speechless, and they dared not laugh anymore.

Seeing that it was quiet over there, Jiang Daguo pulled Huang Mingcai to the back hall, paid for the beans, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I didn't know Meizhi would come. She is a person who can't be changed. Don't pay attention to her. Just live your life. I still treat you as a brother."

Huang Mingcai and Jiang Daguo had never had any conflicts in the past, and Jiang Daguo was a simple and honest person who never cared about trivial matters. Huang Mingcai had a good impression of Jiang Daguo.

"I won't pay any attention to her." Huang Mingcai said coldly.

He took the money and turned to leave.

Jiang Daguo packed a few buns for him to take with him, "Give them to Sheng'er. There are too many people here today, so I won't keep you here."

Huang Mingcai nodded, took the buns and left with his son.

As soon as he left, there was no more noise in the shop. Everyone just sat there quietly, waiting for the Tai family to come.

Jiang Meihua finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At about nine o'clock, the Tai family arrived.

Jiang Xiaoxiao ran over first, smiling and waving at the Tai family. Jiang Meihua stood up nervously and also went over.

Jiang Daguo said to the Jiang family, "Dad, Mom, the Tai family is here."

He and Jiang Meihua walked over to greet them.

Uncle Jiang stood up, holding the table, and greeted them with a smile.

Aunt Jiang originally thought that when she saw the Tai family, she would ask for a large betrothal gift. However, when she saw the aura of Tai's mother, her arrogance suddenly diminished a lot. She just stood there smiling foolishly, not daring to say much.

Aunt Jiang's sisters were worried that they would say something wrong and be grudged by Aunt Jiang, so they didn't dare to say much.

Liu Xihua also stood up to greet them, and was supported by Jiang Meilan, "Sister-in-law, you just sit down, I'll go."

She diligently welcomed the Tai family in, pouring water and serving tea and snacks.

Tai's mother originally thought it was just a shabby, blackened breakfast shop, but after arriving, she found that the shop was decorated very elegantly, and what was served was her favorite Longjing green tea.

The snacks include crispy candies and peanut cakes, as well as dragon beard cakes and bean curd cakes. The candies are also bought in the county town, not the ordinary hard candies sold in town.

It seems that the Jiang family has made careful arrangements.

The sisters-in-law who came with Tai's mother also smiled and praised the Jiang family for their good arrangements.

Tai's mother's face lit up and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

The in-laws from both sides met, exchanged greetings, and then sat down.

Although Jiang Meihua and Tai Wenguang were in a free love relationship, they still hired a matchmaker.

The matchmaker was the security guard at the veterinary station.

He was also a witness to the two people meeting frequently.

The two parties exchanged their horoscopes and discussed the betrothal gifts.

"A sewing machine, a bicycle, a stereo, two sets of clothes for each season, four pairs of shoes, and a Shanghai brand watch. The gift money is two hundred yuan," said the security guard.

Aunt Jiang was still thinking that if the gift was too little, she would ask for more money. But now it seems that the betrothal gift is not small.

She immediately smiled happily, "My in-laws are so thoughtful."

The betrothal gifts were agreed upon. The security guard gave the son a list of betrothal gifts. Both parties agreed that they would get married at the end of the year and the betrothal gifts would be delivered next month.

Aunt Jiang was even happier.

Next, we arrange the banquet.

Liu Xihua is heavy and has difficulty moving, so everything is taken care of by Jiang Daguo and his two younger sisters.

The dishes and drinks are very thoughtful.

This left Tai's mother, who was always picky, speechless.

The engagement went very smoothly.

After both parties finished their meal and chatted for a while, the Tai family got up and left.

Jiang Meihua went to see them off, but was stopped by Aunt Jiang.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Jiang Meihua kept watching the Tai family. Only after she saw them walk away did she turn around and walk back into the shop.

"You have to send the gift money to mom." Aunt Jiang said in a deep voice.

Jiang Meihua opened her eyes wide, "Mom, I want to arrange the dowry. I'll give it to you. Will you help me arrange the dowry?"

She is very worried about her mother now.

[No way, grandma wants to give the gift money from the second aunt to the eldest aunt] Jiang Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes.
